[Diagnostic significance of the colloid concentration in the static liver scintigram].

The count density in the right liver lobe is presented as a parameter for the recognition of diffuse parenchymal diseases of the liver by means of static colloidal scanning. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy (87-100%) in separating normal from parenchymal damage and cirrhosis are comparable to the results of dynamic sequence scanning. Since this parameter is easy to be measured it is proposed for clinical application.
